I'm optimistic about the Sora app! My hope is that it becomes much more whimsical and fun than TikTok because everyone on the app knows that all content is fake. Hopefully that means less rage-bait and more creative content, like OG YouTube. Nobody's going to get their news from Sora because it's literally 100% fake.

Sounds about as plausible as "ironically taking heroin".

I'm with Neal Stephenson ("Fall", in this case) on this prediction, although I really hope I'm wrong.
That said… does anyone have an invite code?
Would also love an invite code if anyone has one.

In the early years everyone told me that TikTok is actually fun and whimsical (like just after it stopped being musical.ly), and it's all about fun collaboration, and amateur comedy sketches, fun dances and lipsyncs, and people posting fun reactions to each other etc, all lighthearted and that social media is finally fun again!
Why would it be more like OG YouTube, when the content they demoed very closely resembles YouTube shorts? The key difference is OG YouTube was long form.

I have seen what people generate with AI, and I do not have good news for you.
